REST is the most used mechanism to publish APIs for general consumption. Each language has its own set of libraries and methods that help a developer consume these APIs. This course will teach you how to use Python and its libraries for consuming and creating REST APIs in the easiest way possible.

In the first part of this course, you’ll learn how to work with Python in using REST APIs for various scenarios. Then, in the second part, you’ll focus on building your own REST APIs using the HTTP methods, including GET, PUT, etc.

This course is geared toward intermediate users who have a basic understanding of Python and want to improve their skills in using existing REST APIs and building their REST API implementations.

Retrieve the list of all products with details.

Inform clients about the operations supported by the products API.

**(Select all that apply.)** For which operations will the REST API endpoints be the same? 

(Select all that apply.) For which operations will the REST API endpoints be the same?

Which path represents the correct endpoint for retrieving the details of a specific product identified by an `id`?

Which path represents the correct endpoint for retrieving the details of a specific product identified by an <code>id</code>?

**(True or False)** Each of the HTTP methods, i.e., POST, GET, PUT, and DELETE, corresponds to a CRUD Operation.

It's used to provide extra options along with the request for the server to process.

It's never processed by the server and is ignored.

It provides a way for the clients to find the operations supported by the API.
